My eyelids are glued open
They are tucked away and now I can't close them
The pupils are expanded, they are stranded, please help I can't stand it
The ticker on my bed stand it ticks and I look, it's half past one now, look look look
I am staring at the pixels, I am counting the pixels, there are not enough pixels, there are never enough pixels
My eyelids are glued open, they are tucked away and no matter how hard I stray from today they won't make the next day more bearable because
My eyelids are glued open, there is no way to close them, my thoughts are never frozen until I can pause them with the remote that only sometimes works because it's broken
The remotes broken hearted because my brain can't recharge it because it's having such a hard time keeping my eyes open
Open.
Please stop being open
The vending machine is all out of melatonin and Im edging closer and closer to the second time counting the pixels because my eyelids are glued open, they are tucked away and frozen and their remote is broken because my brain can only focus on keeping my eyes open
Why can't I just close them, why is that so difficult
The task at hand is out of hand I just can't seem to get my hand to wrap around the switch that could turn my brain off and focus on the things in my left hand that are more important than the things in my right hand
My eyelids are glued open
They are tucked away and now I can't close them
My pupils are expanded and they've been stranded for several hours, blinking at the madness the endless void of sadness, please help I can't stand it I hate being stranded.
My eyes are glued open this night is hopeless and I want to go home.
